Honda Brio Review: Small car, big design - Economy

Reviewed by Shawn Jooste

Economy

The Brio is aimed not only at the small car market in terms of price, but economy is a huge drawcard too. With escalating fuel prices, having a small 1.2-litre run around capable of less than 5.0 l/100km is a godsend. Even at highway speeds, the Brio holds it’s own. The Brio feels fairly well planted for such a small car, all while keeping pace on the open road and sipping fuel frugally. The engine doesn’t create a lot of road noise either, which is often something that plagues small cars. Honda use intelligent, electronically controlled variable valve timing to make sure the the 1.2-litre engine produces maximum efficiency.
